[ilugd] not working as normal user
I installed the NVIDIA driver but the resolution does not go beyond 800x600 as a normal user. But if I work as root, I am able to change the resolution to 1280x960 and it works. Second problem, my firefox themes never get listed whenever I log in as a normal user but if I am root, I am able to switch between all the themes. I got an AMD 2800+ machine with Fedora Core 2 installed. I downloaded the correct drivers, they even got installed correctly. I searched the archives but could not find anyting similar to my problem. regards, vijay. ___ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

You haven't configured your X to make 1280x960 available to normal user, try setting it up as a an option in the XFree86Config-4 file in the Screen section I got an AMD 2800+ machine with Fedora Core 2 installed. I downloaded the correct drivers, they even got installed correctly. I searched the archives but could not find anyting similar to my problem. You installed all the themes as root, the themes are installed in your .mozilla directory in root. if you want them to be available to your normal user either 1. Install them as the user or, 2. copy the .mozilla/firefox directory from root to the users home directory grant ownership to the user and starts firefox regards, vijay. ___ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/ ___ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

[ilugd] (fwd) [SECURITY] [Announce] GnuPG stable 1.4 released
[New version of GnuPG available. Note: the older version (1.2.x) is still stable and secure. Gotta love the MIME separators in the message -- think Carnivore overloading. Mommy, why doesn't my mail client also make separators like that!? :) -- Raju] This is an RFC 1153 digest. (1 message) -- MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary1701819743== Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: Werner Koch [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Subject: [Announce] GnuPG stable 1.4 released Date: Thu, 16 Dec 2004 18:24:48 +0100 --===1701819743== Content-Type: multipart/signed; boundary==Saddam-Hussein-Skipjack-Cohiba-CESID-Clinton-CDC-strategic-freedom-C; micalg=pgp-sha1; protocol=application/pgp-signature --=Saddam-Hussein-Skipjack-Cohiba-CESID-Clinton-CDC-strategic-freedom-C Hello! We are pleased to announce the availability of the new stable GnuPG series. This first release is version 1.4.0 The GNU Privacy Guard (GnuPG) is GNU's tool for secure communication and data storage. It is a complete and free replacement of PGP and can be used to encrypt data and to create digital signatures. It includes an advanced key management facility and is compliant with the proposed OpenPGP Internet standard as described in RFC2440. 1.4.x is very similar to 1.2.x although a lot of improvements have been added over the course of the last 2 years. There are some minor incompatibilities when using very rare options but in almost all cases it may just replace the 1.2.x versions (as well as 1.0.6). Please note that the 1.2.x series will enter end of life status on January 1, 2005, after which it will only be updated for security critical bugs. Before then, we expect one more 1.2.x release to address a few minor outstanding issues (the fixes for which are already in 1.4.0), and to update the translations. Getting the Software Please follow the instructions found at http://www.gnupg.org/download/ or read on: GnuPG 1.4.0 may be downloaded from one of the GnuPG mirror sites or direct from ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt . The list of mirrors can be found at http://www.gnupg.org/mirrors.html . Note, that GnuPG is not available at ftp.gnu.org. On the mirrors you should find the following files in the *gnupg* directory: gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2 (2658k) gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2.sig GnuPG source compressed using BZIP2 and OpenPGP signature. gnupg-1.4.0.tar.gz (3837k) gnupg-1.4.0.tar.gz.sig GnuPG source compressed using GZIP and OpenPGP signature. Select one of them. To shorten the download time, you probably want to get the BZIP2 compressed file. Please try another mirror if exceptional your mirror is not yet up to date. In the *binary* directory, you should find these files: gnupg-w32cli-1.4.0.zip (1626k) gnupg-w32cli-1.4.0.zip.sig GnuPG compiled for Microsoft Windows and OpenPGP signature. Note that this is a command line version and comes without a graphical installer tool. You have to use an UNZIP utility to extract the files and install them manually. The included file README.W32 has further instructions. The source files are the same as given above. Checking the Integrity == In order to check that the version of GnuPG which you are going to install is an original and unmodified one, you can do it in one of the following ways: * If you already have a trusted version of GnuPG installed, you can simply check the supplied signature. For example to check the signature of the file gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2 you would use this command: gpg --verify gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2.sig This checks whether the signature file matches the source file. You should see a message indicating that the signature is good and made by that signing key. Make sure that you have the right key, either by checking the fingerprint of that key with other sources or by checking that the key has been signed by a trustworthy other key. Note, that you can retrieve the signing key using finger wk 'at' g10code.com or finger dd9jn 'at' gnu.org or using the keyservers. I recently prolonged the expiration date; thus you might need a fresh copy of that key. Never use a GnuPG version you just downloaded to check the integrity of the source - use an existing GnuPG installation! * If you are not able to use an old version of GnuPG, you have to verify the SHA1 checksum. Assuming you downloaded the file gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2, you would run the sha1sum command like this: sha1sum gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2 and check that the output matches the first line from the following list: 0054635a131b7af383e956fa9e1520ac44cad116 gnupg-1.4.0.tar.bz2 7078b8f14f21d04c7bc9d988a6a2f08d703fbc83 gnupg-1.4.0.tar.gz
